Portrait of a Lady… and Another One… and Another… and a Gentleman…

Here are a few more people I don't know, and, yet, somehow, was compelled to keep their photos for a decade before scanning them to share. Some of them look a little bit like people I actually do know… who knows? they may be related. 

The world may never know.

 Still, enjoy what there is of the collection, here.

18 months old & already tired of
your nonsense







"Is this a rattle I see before me?"


Internat'l Man of Mystery…

"Did you really leave home
wearing that?"

"So disappointed in you…"







Genetics. See how they work.



"Well, if that's all you have
is light beer…"








"We hope you like our show…"



Dapper as heck, and knows it.

How can I have a bee in my bonnet?

How can I have a bee in my bonnet
When I have no bonnet to wear?
The top of my head has no hat or bow on it
But only a great knot of hair.

My sweet Cousin Sue sports a silken puggree,
Valentine
Aunt Bess has a tile most sublime
At the Door
Yet I have no mill'ner to make me less ugly --
The judges of style call it crime.
Thinking Woman's Hat




My sisters, all three, top their coifs with panache
Three Sisters
But I let no elegance show
I'm lacking sombrero for want of spare cash
And that's why I'm feeling so low.
Feeling Low
